Meet Joe - Growing Talent at KFH

Joe Goode | FEBRUARY 2021

We’d like you to meet Joe Goode, our Growing Talent Award winner for the month of February. Joe was hired as the first employee on the KFH construction team over 4 years ago and is now a Construction Supervisor. He has maintained consistent growth in his position and has assumed more and more responsibilities over time by demonstrating he is capable.

As a Stanford native, Joe enjoys the chance to earn a living while staying close to home and making a difference in his community. KFH has made a difference in Joe’s life by offering him an opportunity to grow and excel, and Joe is paying it forward. Joe represents KFH well in the way he is committed to his job, shows up every day ready to work hard, and through his track record of weathering adversity and maintaining his forward course.

Our managers know Joe’s value to the company and will tell you that he can always be counted on to come through when he is needed. Accountability, reliability, initiative, leadership and loyalty are all words that describe Joe and his work ethic. Joe was especially put to the test last month during a week of rough winter weather during mid-February in Kentucky that caused maintenance issues in our greenhouse. He stayed at work overtime to assist our Facility and Boiler Manager in getting everything back to shape and we can not thank him enough.

By recognizing Joe with our Growing Talent Award, this is one small way we are thanking him for all his hard work and dedication to KFH and to our mission. Joe knows the difference he is making in Kentucky and we are glad he’s on board as, together, we make the Future of Farming a reality.
